A realistic, scale-based, science-documentary-style scene in space
Prompt
A realistic, scale-based, science-documentary-style scene in space: The Moon has deviated from its orbit and is slowly drifting toward Earth. The camera shows both from a wide angle, from Earth's orbit. As the Moon approaches, Earth's tidal forces create cracks in the Moon's surface; pieces of rock and dust clouds break off, stretching toward Earth in a thin ring of debris (Roche limit physics). The Moon's shape is slightly deformed into an egg shape by gravity. In the final seconds, atmospheric friction creates a reddish-orange plasma flash, launching massive shock waves kilometers high in Earth's oceans. At the moment of impact, a white-orange burst of energy, molten rock, and vaporized crustal fragments scatter in all directions; dust and debris begin to swirl around Earth in an orbital ring. The lighting is realistic, based on sunlight (physics-based render/PBR), with minimal lens flare, volumetric dust, and light refraction. The camera follows the event with a slow, cinematic dolly-in motion; IMAX documentary/"Interstellar" style visual language. Emphasis on 8K, photon-realistic, high dynamic range (HDR), and slow motion.
